SCOOBYD00 Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 I'm due to get my 18" Compos refurbed but I do not have another set of wheels to use for the week... I need @ least 17"'s to clear my AP 4 pots. Can anyone help? or even a cheapo set with just legal rubber I could buy? Really appreciate any help on this one Can pickup in & around Lothian / Fife etc Cheers
Johnny50 Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 Neofox has my 18" RSGT's sitting at his house...you're welcome to them.. But i think he stays in Berwick. They will clear the Ap's no problem.
dave_morgan Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 I have 4 P1 alloys spare, but they have 'track' tread on them, so not strictly street legal. I think 2 might scrape though an MOT, but the other 2 are closer to slicks than street tyres. I'm in Edinburgh if you want a look.
SCOOBYD00 Posted September 6, 2005 Author Posted September 6, 2005 Thanks for the response guys. Assuming the P1 alloys will clear the aps then that would be great if you don't mind. The Compomotives were *refurbed by the last owner at great cost £480... however the brake dust and fact they were not powdercoated (painted...) did'nt help. I'm going to get them powdercoated @ autoimage in Edinburgh anthricite me thinks. Last time I got wheels powdercoated it took about a week so should not think I would need them any longer TBH. After last nights knockhill outing the easier the better to clean them / hide the brake dust Ok to pickup in Edinburgh tonight?
dave_morgan Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 Should be fine. I'll PM you my mobile number.
SCOOBYD00 Posted September 6, 2005 Author Posted September 6, 2005 Great stuff, will PM you details too. Cheers
dave_morgan Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 Weird - I sent you one around 9:30 this morning with my moby number . I've got your number now anyway and will give you a call later to arrange something for tonight. Around 9pm sound ok ?? I'm only a 10 min drive from you round the bypass. Dave
SCOOBYD00 Posted September 7, 2005 Author Posted September 7, 2005 LOL you did indeed, check before & must have posted without re-checking. Sent you a PM. Cheers
SCOOBYD00 Posted September 9, 2005 Author Posted September 9, 2005 Thanks for the Wheels Dave. I'll be getting the Compo's put in tomorrow and have them back to you asap. If anyone else is looking to get wheels done I could speak to them about a group buy type discount assuming there is any/some interest. If anyone is interested stick your name up. Jase
dave_morgan Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 No problem, nice meeting you Jase. As I said last night, I might be interested in getting my 19's refurbed - they're looking a bit tatty! Dave
SCOOBYD00 Posted September 9, 2005 Author Posted September 9, 2005 Dropped off... £160 for the Anthricite (usually £175) that includes the wheel swap & tire removal etc balanced etc. Standard Silver powdercoat works out @ £35 per wheel. I mentioned the GB.. they can do us £30 per wheel depending on numbers. Get them back next Friday hopefully...
SCOOBYD00 Posted September 16, 2005 Author Posted September 16, 2005 Wheels back Dave... Pop me a text or pm when you want your wheels back, thanks again.
dave_morgan Posted September 16, 2005 Posted September 16, 2005 Think I left my phone at home today, so PM will be on it's way shortly. Dave
